Lakeside Gem: Hot Tub & Game Room in Hancock

Secluded Catskills Estate on 750 Acres | 9BR, 2 Kitchens, Lake Access, Hot Tub & Banquet Space

Designed for large family gatherings, reunions, and unforgettable group getaways, this expansive 9-bedroom, 4-bath lodge offers rare privacy, space, and amenities you simply won’t find anywhere else. Set on 750 private acres near Russell Lake, the property comfortably brings everyone together—while still giving plenty of room to spread out and unwind.

With two full kitchens, multiple living areas, and oversized indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, this home is built for shared meals, celebrations, and quality time. Spend your days swimming, kayaking, or canoeing on the lake, then come back to enjoy the game room, indoor sauna, outdoor hot tub, balcony, and wide-open lawn—perfect for yard games, cookouts, and evening fires under the stars. The property is pet-friendly, with acres of land for your four-legged family members to roam freely.

A True All-Season Group Retreat

Located in the heart of the Catskill Mountains, The Lodge at Hilltop Estate delivers sweeping mountain and valley views in every season. Once a thoroughbred horse farm, the estate has been thoughtfully transformed into an upscale rustic retreat that blends comfort with adventure.

Whether your group wants to fish, hike, bird-watch, kayak, play sports, relax in the hot tub, or gather around the fire pit, there’s something here for everyone. Indoors, enjoy a pool table, game table, exercise space, and sauna—ideal for rainy days or winding down after outdoor adventures.

Bonus Banquet Space for Gatherings & Events

What truly sets this property apart is the attached banquet room (not heated), offering a large additional space that’s perfect for reunion dinners, celebrations, group activities, workshops, or creative setups. The possibilities are endless and add a unique flexibility rarely found in vacation rentals.
